Description

The island of Isola Bella features a Baroque Italian-style garden (almost 400 years in the making) that was formerly a rock; now famous all over the world, it is a place where statues and architectural decorations are combined with geometry and precious plants.

Charles Dickens said: “For however fanciful and fantastic the Isola Bella may be, and is, it still is beautiful".
